How to Send Dokan Data to Telegram
Telegram is a messaging platform. Events can trigger instant notifications. Here is how to pipe Dokan vendor straight into Telegram using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.
The direct approach
AFI delivers vendor data straight from WordPress to Telegram. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Dokan installed and configured.
- A Telegram account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Telegram to AFI
- Create a Telegram Bot via BotFather and copy the bot token.
- Start a chat with your bot and get the chat ID.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Telegram.
- Enter the bot token and click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Dokan to Telegram.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Dokan as the form provider. AFI fires when a vendor registers or a product is submitted, giving you access to vendor name, email, store name, product title, and store category.
3. Select Telegram as the destination
Choose Telegram from the platform dropdown and pick Send Message. This sends a message to a Telegram chat via bot.
4. Map fields
Match each Telegram field on the left to the corresponding Dokan field on the right. Common mappings include vendor name, email, store name, product title, and store category. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain records? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in Dokan. Check Telegram to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.
Free vs Pro
The free version maps message text to Telegram with unlimited records. Pro adds chat ID and parse mode. No per-record fees on any plan.
